I procrastinated assembling this chair because I am SO BAD at assembling things.  Diagrams confuse me, and I don't have a lot of strength. HOWEVER, this chair was so easy to assemble. I did it in approximately an hour.  Instructions and diagrams were very clear.

The chair is very comfortable and nice looking.  I have not yet been able to get the lever to pull out for the back to recline, and that is not really a downside for me.  I do wish the back came up a little more, but the chair does have a tension adjuster which compensates for that.

Overall, I gave the chair 5 stars, but really it's more like 4.5.
